Case Study: Chartered Accountants Ireland achieves secure, scalable remote exams with TestReach

Charted Accountants Ireland Depends on TestReach to Ensure the Integrity and Security of Online Exams for Distance Learners

Chartered Accountants Ireland, the professional body representing 25,000 members, faced a logistics and integrity challenge: many students study remotely or overseas, making it costly and hard to find trustworthy test centres and local invigilators while still offering complex question types and integrated financial resources. To modernise their assessments they partnered with TestReach, using its cloud-based exam authoring and delivery platform with live remote invigilation and an interactive canvas.

TestReach implemented online delivery monitored by trained supervisors in Dublin (video, audio and remote screen sharing) and provided an interactive canvas and “office-style” questions that support word processing, spreadsheets with formulas and drawing tools. The result was easier global rollout, flexible local start times, reduced travel for members in Ireland, and stronger exam security; over 90% of participants rated their invigilator experience excellent and would recommend TestReach.
